Hi! I've been diet controlled. I found out I had GD at week 29. My doctor gave me a few weeks to get everything under control. After a few weeks I would have occasional higher numbers after 2 hrs (in the 130s and very few times in the 150s) and fasting hardly ever under 95 (usually around 105 but my doctor gave me a bit more time trying without medicine) however around week 35 my fasting numbers were very controlled and never ever 95 (I did start sleeping much more after being able to stay home from work and less stress). Now today, it has been easily under 120 and I ever are a bit of white bread and a cup of pasta for dinner and it didn't go over 122 after an hour. Have you experienced your numbers getting better over time?

Same thing here. Post meal numbers are much lower now at 35 weeks - in the 100s after one hour. Between 32-34 was they were like 130's. Fasting has stayed the same all along since 27 weeks - 80s. Had an US two days ago and everything looks good, fluid levels and placenta and baby weighs 5.4 oz.

My numbers started going down a couple of weeks ago - last week, they were pretty consistently in the 80s even when I ate the same kinds of meals. I went to see my OB just to make sure there was nothing wrong and he said usually if you're diet controlled, it's fine. Of course, after the appt, my numbers went back into the 100s :/

I was worried because I had read that they should keep climbing until 36 weeks and then they should plateau. My numbers started dropping to the 90s around week 34 and then 80s at week 35. But again, now they're back in the 100-110 range.
